You are to design a PowerPoint presentation around “The Greatest of All Time (GOAT).” For this comprehensive assignment, tie in prior Required Unit Resources, videos, concepts, and ideas to your responses.

Find a cultural icon (past or present) in an area of sports, and talk about their lasting impact in the field of sports and beyond. Describe the developmental history of this person, their leadership qualities, their education, their work ethic, and how they might have influenced the economy of the field they are in. Why did/do people respect this person so much?

How has that athlete translated their popularity on the field to off the field and helped to popularize the sport through various other private business means? As an example, Colin Kaepernick is popularizing a social movement through Nike clothing, parlaying his fame in the football world. Discuss how globalization has affected your GOAT’s sport or their effect on globalization as a result of their greatness. Which additional references, ideas, images, theories, or concepts could you consider in your presentation?

Please feel free to use the eTextbook and at least two other scholarly articles. Use the slide notes function to explain the slides’ content further.

Your PowerPoint presentation must include a title slide, at least 10 slides of content, and a references slide. Include in-text citations where appropriate. Use no more than five bulleted lines per slide. You should strive to have varied visuals, graphs, tables, and charts. Adhere to APA Style when creating citations and references for this assignment.
